At TOPKING Tapes, we know that industrial design is just as critical as electronic function. This carbon-coated conductive foam is our specific solution for designers who are tired of seeing ugly silver gaskets glinting through the vents of their sleek black devices.
Carbon-coated Conductive Foam Gaskets for Integrated Design
Carbon-coated conductive foam addresses the challenge of shielding in exposed areas. By utilizing a chemically bonded carbon layer rather than a simple paint, this EMI shielding gasket provides a durable matte black finish that conceals effectively without compromising the electrical conductivity required for reliable EMI protection.
Key Advantages
- Anti-Smudge & Durable Surface: The carbon plating is chemically bonded to the fabric. It does not peel, is resistant to fingerprints (anti-fingerprint), and prevents the “dirty” look often associated with aging metal gaskets.
- Superior Conductivity: Despite the black coating, it maintains an ultra-low surface resistance of 0.034 Ω/sq, ensuring reliable grounding.
- Environmental Stability: Excellent moisture resistance and anti-oxidation properties make it suitable for harsh environments.
- High Flexibility: With a deformation band of 20-75%, it fills gaps ranging from 0.5mm to 37.5mm effectively.
- Precision Converting: Compatible with complex die-cutting (arbitrary shaping) for custom I/O ports or intricate housing designs.
- Safety: Flame retardant construction.
Ideal Applications
Carbon-coated conductive foam EMI shielding gasket is specifically engineered for:
- Consumer Electronics: Laptops, Gaming Consoles, and Smartphones where internal components might be visible through vents.
- Automotive Displays: Dashboard screens and sensors requiring blacked-out grounding materials to prevent glare or reflection.
- Handheld Devices: Equipment subject to frequent handling (fingerprint resistance).
- Outdoor Enclosures: Devices requiring higher resistance to humidity and oxidation than standard Ni/Cu gaskets.
Customization Options
- Custom Die-Cut Parts: We can cut to any shape ans sizes based on the exact CAD drawing specifications.
- Kiss-Cut Rolls: Supplied on release liner for automated assembly.
- Adhesive Backing: Available with high-performance Conductive PSA (Pressure Sensitive Adhesive) for secure mounting.
